79% of jobs in 2011 fell into a category of production volumes
under 5,000 - which is suited to digital production. (Source: Pira)

Editor's Notes

  1. Good morning/afternoon.
  2. Ricoh’s portfolio has expanded considerably in recent years and is growing fast, fuelled by considerable R&D investment.
  3. However this is only scratching the surface of the potential opportunity for us in Europe. Digital EP (aka Laser) and Inkjet are growing at 71% and, between them will represent a 23.170 M Euro opportunity by 2015.
  4. Ricoh’s portfolio has expanded considerably in recent years and is growing fast, fuelled by considerable R&D investment.
  5. This slide has four “builds” in it.As the slide opens it shows that there is a minimum order for the number of books that can be produced using offsetClick 1: (Black dotted line) This is a typical demand curve for a popular book. Demand begins low, builds to a peak and then tapers off over time.Click 2: (Red slope) If the publisher orders too many books, they do not all sell and wind up either in inventory or being turned into wood pulpClick 3: (Green slope) Sometimes, and not very often, the publisher guesses correctly and they run out of books just about the time that public runs out of interest in the bookClick 4: (Blue slope) If the publisher orders the minimum they run the risk of running out of books before people stop demanding the book. At this point there isn’t enough potential interest left to justify an economical offset press run. The result is lost revenue, angry bookstores, angry book distributors and angry authors.The fear of running out of books is so great that they always(!) over print.Click 5: The better and safer strategy is to print in quantities just large enough to have the books printed at the best price. When that supply runs out the remaining demand can be satisfied by a series of short runs on digital equipment.Click 6: With zero inventory and a digital print model in place the books never go “out of print”, “out of stock” or “out of stock indefinitely” the ability to continue to satisfy this lingering demand is called the Long Tail and represents an endless risk-free source of continuing revenue
  6. Ricoh’s portfolio has expanded considerably in recent years and is growing fast, fuelled by considerable R&D investment.
  7. Many brands, operating in highly competitive global industries, are looking for new ways to create a competitive advantage. Hence marketing teams in corporate businesses are now trying to harness the big data they have access to in order to gain unique insights into their customers’ behaviours, buying patterns and sentiments. From this data they will use segmenting, profiling and targeting techniques to create the right message for the right person at the right time. CLICKAnd the detailed insights from big data can allow greater personalisation in multi-channel communications activity, spanning a range of media to reach and engage with consumers effectively.This is using big data for small, or highly targeted, effective communications. A highly value-added service as far as a Corporate Marketing team is concerned. And an opportunity for the progressive PSP.
  8. As stated earlier, consumers today want to receive communications through a variety of channels: online and offline. Therefore Ricoh offers a range of powerful tools that help PSPs provide options for clients wishing to deliver cross media marketing solutions. A key element of the solution is that PSPs can create one campaign yet deliver the message across multiple channels in a consistent way: PrintPersonalised URLsQR codesOnlineDigital.CLICKAs a result, the PSP can deliver for their client a consistent customer experience. You can see here how the process for a typical cross media campaign unfolds, which also enriches the brand’s database with the recipients’ data.
  9. Ricoh’s portfolio has expanded considerably in recent years and is growing fast, fuelled by considerable R&D investment.
